To my surprise it does not look possible using the slide switch to toggle on and off an indicator light. I’ve asked support and it is not possible. The goal is to slide the switch right and an indicator light on the screen turns on, switch it to the left and it turns off. I can assign a timed animation to the switch but thats about it.

Can you please send us a screenshot, where we can see on which event you tried to use the slide switch?

Thank you for the reply. I found it odd that you would have a toggle button when toggling an indicator on the screen is not possible. The Squareline response to the link basically says that it is not possible. Here is my original post with a screenshot.

Thanks,

Mike
